.GGramling_SI’s Football Things for conference championship Sunday: • A very Garoppolo discussion • Defensive slog in L.A. • Ja’Marr Chase and blown minds • Family Feud Fast Money rules for OT? • Sad (potential) reality of the post-Brady Bucs
If the past two weeks have taught NFL head coaches anything, it’s that we—you, me, media people, fans, you know, goobers with internet connections—will never let you live it down if you make a clock-management mistake.
Unless, like Andy Reid, you start winning Super Bowls. But the other three guys coaching this weekend can consider this a PSA.After two weeks of mild criticism over his substandard play, there’s never been a more appropriate time to mount an impassioned defense of Jimmy Garoppolo who—aside from being a starting NFL quarterback, having four-year earnings approximately equal to the island nation of Nauru’s annual GDP, and being impossibly handsome—just can’t catch a break.
But Garoppolo has brought the 49ers back a few times in recent years—especially notable because it’s a team that doesn’t trail in a lot of games. The 48–46 win over the Saints in December 2019 was the most impressive performance of his career, coming back from down 13 in the first half to win a shootout, throwing for 349 yards on 35 attempts with four touchdowns and a long catch-and-run to George Kittle to set up a game-winning field goal, all against a very good defense on the road.
